This amount specifies how much of the main audio will remain, or whether it will
be silenced.

THRESHOLD until the ducker for the main signal reaches the amount of
attenuation specified by the [RANGE] knob.
•[HOLD] knob
Specifies the time from when the input signal falls below the THRESHOLD until the
signal begins returning to its original level.
•[RELEASE] knob
Specifies the duration of the wait from when the HOLD time has elapsed until the
ducker no longer affects the input signal.
Making ducker settings
Examples of use
Example 1: If there is input from a mic while background music is playing, the volume
of the background music will automatically decrease.
Example 2: In a conference, the voice of a participant is suppressed when there is
input from the mic of the chairperson.
1. Patch the background music and the lowest-priority mics to the desired
zone.
The volume of this sound will be attenuated when the ducker operates.
The sound being input as the priority source is not patched to the input of the zone.
2. In the ZONE screen, select the zone for which you want to make ducker
settings.
3. Click the DUCKER [ON] button.
4. In the PRIORITY SOURCE list, select the sound that will have a higher
priority than the sounds you patched in step 1.
5. Use [RANGE] to adjust the amount of
ducking.
Specify a smaller value if you want some sound to
remain as (for example) background music, or
specify a high value such as –70 dB if you want the
sound to be entirely silenced.
6. Adjust other parameters as necessary.
